A converging lens of focal length 10cm forms an erect image three times the size of the real object. Calculate the distance between the image and the object.

A
6.6cm
B
11.1cm
C
13.3cm
D
20.0cm
correct option: c

Given, image size = 3U

object size = U

focal length = 10cm

lens to object distance = \(\frac{focal length \times object size}{image size}\)

= \(\frac{10 \times u}{3u} = 3.33\)

distance between image and object = 10 + 3.33 = 13.33cm
